Challenges, we can’t get away from them, we can’t avoid them, in fact it is unhealthy to try to do both of these.

Challenges are just a part of life, they can come in the form of a parking ticket, a difficult colleague or boss or client at work, troubles with a friend or loved one, an illness or money problems etc, whatever it is, these things happen and will continue to happen throughout life.

So if they will continue to happen and you can’t get away from them, you have to deal with them, and it’s how you deal with them that matters. Continue reading →

“In oneself lies the whole world and if you know how to look and learn, the door is there and the key is in your hand. Nobody on earth can give you either the key or the door to open, except yourself.” – Jiddu Krishnamurti

This just goes to show that we really can control our bodies to recover.

If we can control our own bodies, what else can we control … our destiny?

This also shows us what happens when we believe someone elses opinion of ourselves, and then what can happen if we take control of that and what happens when we believe in ourselves regardless of what anyone else thinks.

Now we all have problems, issues or challenges, nobody is safe from them, it’s just how you respond to them which is key.

Some of us allow these issues to get to us so much so that it can actually affect us physically, in the form of:

– Stress

– Sleepless nights

– Anger/hate towards self or others

– Aches and pains

If you think about it, it’s bonkers, just from something that you are thinking about, (possibly even stories made up in your head?) you are now having a physical reaction to it; I used to suffer from some of these myself.

Now for those that still find it hard to believe that ‘thoughts become things’ and ‘what you think about, you bring about’ and all the rest of the teachings towards manifestation we have, well there you have it, we can all do it, but most of us are just doing it on the negative side!

These physical symptoms stem from feelings and emotions within you.

Thoughts of course do have a part to play in this, but your thought pattern may go up and down, however your feelings and emotions have a much steadier line of course so it’s much easier to address them.

What do most people do with these feelings that they don’t like?

– Suppress them

– Try and ignore them

– Forget about them

– Say it’s not happening

– Just carry on regardless

– Hold on to them, (maybe a grudge)

We just can’t seem to cope with a ‘bad’ feeling inside us, it feels uncomfortable, it feels wrong, but I have put the word bad in inverted commas because that’s just the describing word we put on it ourselves, a feeling is not necessarily good or bad, it’s just a feeling, it’s just energy moving around inside us, and energy and feelings don’t label themselves good or bad, we do.

I could almost say it’s natural for us to not want to feel these feelings, but it’s actually the opposite, it is the most natural thing for us to feel them, we have been feeling them all our lives, but that’s just it, all we have been doing is feeling them, they haven’t caused us to explode or spontaneously combust into flames, well, I bet some of us have felt we’ve come close! 🙂
